Join us for an event-filled, formal evening with dinner, a live concert with Michael Paulo and all-night dancing with R:Tyme. The Benefit Concert will be held on Saturday, March 24, 2018 from 6:00 pm to 11:00 pm at the Bahia Resort Hotel, San Diego, California.

Each year Silayan Filipina hosts a benefit event to raise funds for a worthy charity. Recognizing the significant role that music plays in communication, cultural awareness, well-being and social "storytelling", it is important to propagate and sustain music within our children. Music breaks the boundaries of race, status and religion, and is a powerful instrument that reflects the mood of the world.

This year's net proceeds for Silayan Filipina's Benefit Concert will be donated to The Filipino American Symphony Orchestra (FASO), and music programs and workshops for children, continuing to promote and foster music in the community.

The net proceeds will help FASO’s goal to sustain artistic excellence in the community, to be the avenue of cultural growth especially the youth, and help in developing love and pride not only in music but in one’s identity. In addition, financially assist in music programs and workshops to children.

The Concert & Dance

Michael Paulo, this year's Benefit Concert headliner, is one of the most versatile and cosmopolitan saxophonists in pop, soul and contemporary jazz, captivating audiences for over 35 years. His alluring sax renditions have been featured with many acclaimed artists such as Al Jarreau, James Ingram, Rick Braun and Peter White, Kenny Loggins, Patti Austin, Jeffrey Osborne, David Benoit, Bobby Caldwell and Johnny Mathis to name a few. Best known in Japan and the U.S. for his passionate sax mastery in the group Kalapana, he upholds his trademark as one of the top Asian American Jazz artists.

Michael Paulo's company, Apaulo Music Productions, has produced numerous Jazz concerts in California and Hawaii and music festivals including the Temecula Wine and Music Festival and the Pacific Rim Jazz Festival.

Following Michael Paulo's performance, dance the night away to the sounds of one of the hottest dance bands in San Diego, R:Tyme, with special numbers featuring Michael Paulo.
